Hello!
| recently learned that you are considering whether to approve outdoor dining for downtown Nashua
once again this summer. | wanted to reach out in support of this. We really enjoyed the outdoor dining
opportunities, seeing people we knew as we strolled down Main Street, enjoying the busy and active
feel of having lots of people in the area, and the opportunity to dine outside amidst the pandemic.
Actually, we hope that when the pandemic is a thing of the past, that outdoor dining opportunities will
continue. Main Street often feels "empty" and like we are struggling to get people there. We worry
about the retail businesses as well as the restaurants and believe the foot traffic resulting from the
outdoor dining is likely good for retail businesses. We have so much turnover downtown and would
like to see it more "steady".
Thank you for considering this issue!
Sincerely,
Tricia and Paul Casey
15 Danbury Rd., Nashua
